The "People" Story with Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist Jeffrey Marx

"To me, a great story is something that is so good on its own, I can't mess it up as a researcher or as a writer." Jeffrey Marx, author of 6 bestsellers and keynote speaker, joins The MindSide Podcast this week to discuss his path as a journalist, as well as his perspective on today's chaotic world.

Marx believes that people hold the best stories, and it simply takes building and maintaining a relationship with them to bring those stories to the rest of the world. Throughout his career, Jeffrey has seen the world change in character, which has led him to look at society through a unique lens.

"We all have a lens, or a prism through which we look at things that determine every choice we make during a day."

Everyone can contribute to a better society. While we all wear a mask to some degree, we all have an opportunity to impact people in a way that can better the world that surrounds us. Marx explains how "we have an empathy deficit disorder in this nation," and goes on to tell of some things that we, as a society, can keep in mind to help better the space we live in and the people around us.

We hope you enjoy this podcast as much as we enjoyed recording it.
